How does conveyancing in Westcombe Park differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in Westcombe Park come to us having been asked by the developer to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the house is finished. This is because builders in Westcombe Park usually acquire the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are used to new build conveyancing in Westcombe Park or who has acted in the same development.

Due to the encouragement of my in-laws I had a survey completed on a house in Westcombe Park in advance of instructing solicitors. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the house. My surveyor has said that some lenders will refuse to grant a loan on a flying freehold property.

It varies from the lender to lender. Lloyds has different requirements for example to Birmingham Midshires. If you call us we can investigate further with the appropriate mortgage company. If you lender is happy to lend one our lawyers can assist as they are used to dealing with flying freeholds in Westcombe Park. Conveyancing can be more complicated and therefore you should check with your conveyancing solicitor in Westcombe Park to see if the conveyancing costs will increase in light of this.

My cousin is buying a basement flat in Westcombe Park. He has received a fee estimate by the conveyancer connected to the selling agents totaling £1300 . It was ten years ago since I sold and purchased a house and the fee was £450. Have charges really increased to that extent?
